Italian mother wears shocking t-shirt of her daughter’s dismembered body

>

The mother of a murdered 18-year-old girl attended court wearing a T-shirt printed with her daughter’s dismembered body, after the accused killer appealed part of his conviction.

Pamela Mastropietro, was murdered and dismembered in January 2018 by a Nigerian drug trafficker, Innocent Oseghale. He has appealed against part of the sentence in which he was originally found to have sexually assaulted Mastropietro before killing her.

Mastropietro’s mother, Alessandra Verni, went to the Perugia appeal court yesterday wearing a T-shirt depicting gruesome images of her daughter’s body.

A confrontation broke out in the courtroom with Verni and Oseghale being separated by the police. The court hearing will resume next month.

“Have you seen what they did to her?” Verni said of her murdered daughter, whose mutilated body appeared on her T-shirt.

‘That man, who raped and tortured her, should rot in jail.’

The distraught mother’s T-shirt featured the dismembered head of her daughter. The series of heartbreaking images were also shaped so that the separate body parts formed the structure of one body.

Innocent Oseghale, 32, was convicted and sentenced to prison in 2019 for murdering 18-year-old Mastropietro and is appealing part of his rape conviction.

Oseghale came to Italy in 2014 as an asylum seeker but left its refugee program in 2017, a year before he killed Mastropietro.

The judge asked Oseghale if he intended to participate in the next hearing in February. After speaking with his lawyer, he told the court that he would not do it.

Verni, who was in the courtroom at the time with his T-shirt on, shouted out loud: ‘Now even an executioner is asked if he wants to participate in the hearing or not.

“We’re going to roll out a red carpet at this point as well,” he added.

The two then came face to face as police led Oseghale out of the courtroom, chanting, “enough judicial oppression.”

Verni charged at him and yelled, ‘Tell me… tell me what you want.’

Both were immediately withdrawn by the judicial police and the carabinieri.

Oseghale’s life sentence will be shortened if the appeals court finds him not guilty of rape.

Mastropietro was murdered after leaving an addiction recovery center in Macerata, in the Marche region, in early 2018.

Investigators understood that she had decided to leave the premises and made the journey on foot to the local train station.

Having left the recovery center, Mastropietro tried to find drugs in Macerata. He then met Innocent Oseghale, a local Nigerian drug dealer, then 29 years old.

A day later, a passerby noticed two suitcases abandoned in a small ditch. Inside the box was found the mutilated and dismembered body of Mastropietro.

Drug dealer Oseghale was accused of selling drugs to Mastropietro, where he later arrested her, raped and stabbed her. Police found Mastropietro’s bloody clothes at Oseghale’s house.

The Nigerian assured in his testimony that Mastropietro died from a heroin overdose.

However, an autopsy showed that Mastropietro died due to the successive abdominal stab wounds. She also found that her body was dismembered while she was still alive.

The Nigerian was charged with murder, sexual assault, concealment and destruction of a body. He disputed the charges at trial in February 2019.

He was found guilty and sentenced to life in prison, with eighteen months in solitary confinement.
